Doge Gets Its Own Plush, Thanks To Hashtag Collectibles

by Natalie Kipper

Hashtag Collectibles, makers of those amazing Blobfish plushes, is venturing into canine territory with their new plush Doge. No, that wasn’t a typo. I meant “Doge” as in that well-known meme with the words and the dog photos. I know you know what I am talking about.photo_jul_25_3_49_14_pm_1024x1024

Anyways, back to plush toys. The Doge plush measures six inches by nine inches, a good desktop size. It costs $16.99. In my experience, Hashtag Collectibles makes high quality plushes. If you are a lover of internet-famous animals or simply a fan of the breed, I would totally check it out.

Oh and while you are over at Hashtag Collectibles’ online store, take a look at the Stuffed Water Bear. You will thank me later.

The Best of the Bullet Bill Changes Everything Meme

by Gilmore

In 2006, before the internet was overrun by tired old advice animal memes, we had 4Chan, we had Something Awful, we had Fark and maybe a few other places. Memes weren’t on the news and they sure as hell weren’t performing at real, televised awards shows. But much like the transgendered dinosaurs in Jurassic Park, life found a way.

And also in the summer of 2006, Geekscape‘s Jonathan London annoyingly gave his friend Graham a piece of advice that would unknowingly set off one of the greatest message-board-based memes of all time. They were playing New Super Mario Bros. on the DS, Graham was rushing through a level, and Jonathan warned “Careful. Bullet Bill changes everything.” And indeed, he does.

Bullet Bill Changes Everything

Bullet Bill, for the uninitiated, is the lovable yet deadly giant bullet/bomb that has killed countless of us who have dared underestimate him in a Mario game.

And so, with uttering of one of the nerdiest things ever said out loud, the geek community couldn’t stop putting Bullet Bill into some of humanity’s darkest moments (and some randomly great ones), showing once and for all that Bullet Bill truly does change… everything.

NOTE: Some of these may be horribly offensive.

And a bonus from Reddit, where an old Scapist mentioned in the comments that yes, Bullet Bill Changes Everything:
